(iv) PREFACE

This publication is an attempt to provide statistical information of the Council of States i.e. Rajya Sabha since its inception in 1952 containing data on diverse activities pertaining to its functioning and presented in a statistical form. This is the Second edition of this book containing information upto 2018. This would enable Members and the public to have authentic data concerning some important facts of the working of the Upper House. The collection of information has been a labourious process and there are undoubtedly a few gaps for which information was not available. With growing interest in the functioning of Parliament, it is proposed that this publication will be improved upon in subsequent years for which suggestions are always welcome. While all sections of the Rajya Sabha Secretariat have been involved in providing updated information, the Committee Co-ordination Section has taken keen interest in updating this Rajya Sabha Statistical Information (1952-2018).

NEW DELHI; DESH DEEPAK VERMA, October, 2019 Secretary-General.

INTRODUCTION

The Council of States (Rajya Sabha) was constituted on 3rd April, 1952 with Dr. S. Radhakrishnan as India’s first Vice-President and ex-officio Chairman of this august House. Since its inception, it has transacted enormous volume of work. Smoothening the functioning of this House is the crucial role played by the Rajya Sabha Secretariat, which is headed by its Secretary-General. Keeping with the ever-growing complexities and dynamism of governance and nation-building, the scope of work of this House too became increasingly diversified and complex, necessitating establishment of various Sections and Branches in the Secretariat from time to time in order to cater to the evolving needs of the House. Thus, apart from old Branches and Sections, which were established with the inception of Rajya Sabha, many new Sections/Branches were established subsequently with the increasing requirement due to creation of various Parliamentary Committees, including the Department-related Parliamentary Standing Committees from time to time. A nodal Section was also set-up in 2003 in the form of Committee Co-ordination Section to co-ordinate the diverse activities and functioning of Parliamentary Committees which included nominations/elections of Members thereto and various statutory bodies. As already mentioned in the Preface, this publication attempts to provide statistical information on the volume of work done by the Rajya Sabha and its Secretariat from 1952 to 2018 as per the records available with the Secretariat. Though every effort has been made to provide the information from 1952, in certain cases, it could not be done as the information pertaining to early period was not available as they had been either weeded out as per the Office Manual or were available in piecemeal at different places, making it difficult to retrieve and compile the same. In some cases, concerned Branches/Sections were created subsequently and, therefore, the information has been provided since they came into existence. Nevertheless, the statistical information provided in this publication covers vast and diversified array of work done by the House and its Secretariat. It is hoped that this publication will be useful in understanding the functioning of the Second Chamber of Indian Parliament in discharging its Constitutional responsibility.
